"Project: Spring garden bed Clean Up & mulching. Shane and crew (I think his name was Tod) where great. Tod was very gentle with the plants and did a grate job spreading the mulch around. They were very open to direction and did what we asked. When we ran out of mulch, they even offered to come back and finish up when we get more mulch. All-in-all a great job. We are totally happy with their work and would use them again."

"Finding a reliable and trustworthy landscaping company is difficult. Shane and his crew fulfilled my quest. They undertook a project to cleanup a yard and shrub beds after nearly two years of neglect. Other landscaping companies base their quotes on requested photos. Shane took the time to personally walk the property with me and take notes on details. Additionally, he followed up with progress inspections, as the work progressed. His crew was polite, professional and hard working. I was totally satisfied with their performance on a very challenging project."

"I assumed for the price that was quoted that he was just going to give our front lawn a trim. Let me just say, Efrain takes pride in what he does. Not only did he mow our lawn, he trimmed our trees and straightened up our flower bed- and did such a nice job that our neighbor ran over and hired him to do their property as well. I'm very satisfied with the work- and I've found our new lawn care professional. Thank you so much!"

"Tyler and his team provided the dual service of yard clean-up, branch removal, and power washing my house, patio, and two storage sheds. Everything was done beyond my expectations for both jobs. The power washing noticeably transformed my siding and my sheds look brand new. The spring storms delayed getting the jobs started, but Tyler communicated with me regularly to let me know when they could accomplish the tasks. I look forward to working with P&H Power Washing on an annual basis. Their pricing was competitive and they did a great job."

Topsoil costs from $12 to $55 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. For example, screened black dirt will cost about $15 per cubic yard. Loam (soil composed of sand, silt, and clay) costs about $17 per cubic yard. Standard screened topsoil costs about $20 per cubic yard. The type of topsoil you need depends on your landscaping plans.
Mulch costs anywhere from $30 to $150 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. On the inexpensive end, red and black mulch are about $35 to $40 per cubic yard, and are typically made from recycled waste wood like shredded old pallets or deck material. Cedar, cypress, and rubber mulch cost anywhere from $100 to $120 per cubic yard. A pro can help you determine the type of mulch most suitable for your landscaping needs.
Topsoil should go down first. If the topsoil is next to your house, make sure the grade slopes away from the house to keep water from pooling against your foundation and possibly leaking into your basement or crawl space. Don’t cover your decorative landscape mulch with topsoil as that defeats the purpose of laying down the mulch. If you’re trying to create a certain soil composition to improve plant growth, you’ll likely want compost mixed into the topsoil instead of mulch. Over time, any decorative wood mulch will simply decompose under the topsoil.
No, mulch itself does not necessarily attract termites even though it’s usually made of shredded wood. Some types of mulch like cedar or cypress resist termites because they’re toxic or unappetizing to the wood munchers. However, when the mulch is deep enough, say three inches or more, it creates a perfect habitat for insects of all kinds to build nests.
Although it’s not required to lay anything under mulch, it can help to put landscape fabric or plastic weed barrier down and lay mulch on top. The barrier helps keep weeds from growing up through your mulch. It also helps keep rodents and insects from burrowing into the ground underneath.
